Feeling much better but now the stiffness is starting up. Started back work but working from home for the next two weeks...thank God. Ladies, you will NEED TIME to recover from this procedure. It is no walk in the park. I'm being honest as to what my experience has been. It has been extremely challenging. 2 weeks Post op I got an infection in my leg and ended up being admitted to the hospital for a couple of days. My hemoglobin dropped all the way down to 7.4, and I was just in discomfort and tired all the time. This is the first wk I can actually say I feel good. I know I have a long way to go still but thankful the worst is over.

Surgery completed and I'm in recovery phase. Today is exactly 2wks PO
Hi guys, sorry for the delayed updates but it's been a process recovering. It's hard. Point blank. I've had moments where I just felt so terrible with all the pain and what not. Again, please keep in mind that the pain and discomfort is REAL!!! I will give more details as Time goes by. Thanks so much for all of ur concern and prayers. Here are some photos...

Wow!!!! His work is Amazing, I didnt even consider adding any to thighs. Your bootie looks great and your waist is coming down nicely. Your final results are going to be worth the pain. Try to rest and drink lots of water.

It was horrible! The worst thing ever. I cried, I cursed, I fell asleep or passed out for 10 mins or so, woke up and repeated the crying/cursing process.

Oh my thank god ur past the worst. I remember I rented a van but that was a bad idea cuz getting in and out was a nightmare. This time around I'm gonna lay the front seat down in a reg size car. U think that would work?
J

That would work but u need tons of pillows and blankets for cushion. I actually found it ok (other times when needed to travel) to lay in the backseat on my stomach. I padded the backseat with the pillows. Can't get away from the bumps in the road tho. You feel EVERY movement of the car

What hurts the most? Is it the lipo areas or booty? How much time do you think is reasonable to take off from work?

When you sent me this message I got admitted to the hospital this same day. So to answer now, my massages were painful in the beginning but I always feel so much better when I'm done. Now, it's really good and I love my massage lady

Both the lipo and booty area was painful. Now, I'll say it's the lipo area. The booty still hurts but only if I press on it so definitely no sitting without a pillow. When u sit on a pillow, the pressure is on ur thighs and not the butt so that good but I can't sit like that too long either. It's uncomfortable. I've been off work 4wks now, and will work from home for the next 2 wks for a total of 6 wks down time. I pray that is enough!

Thanks for the answers they are so helpful and I appreciate it. Glad you are feeling better. We dont realize the effect surgery has on our health which is added assurance you made the right decision in staying in the states

Yes, you are so right. I'd rather be home God forbid if something happen and I need my immediate family and friends, which I really needed. It's worth saving or financing and paying the extra money.

Hey I got my bbl done 3 days ago by Dr. Delvecchio I have the same lower stomach swelling as you what did you do to get it to retract in 15 days

I compressed a lot. Used the faja and board, plus wrap. I drank stuff to pee the fluids out. Pineapple tea, lemon water, etc.

I hope everything went smoothly with your surgery. Once the swelling has gone down and you're fully healed, I hope the results exceed your expectations!
J

Thank you. Still healing and swollen but getting better. I've had an extremely challenging recovery but day by day I see results coming in. I think it will take a couple of months for the final results to show itself. I'm just hurting and sore all over
